My Second Husband novel Chapter 248

Everyone was quiet after hearing what Tiffany had said, so she asked again, "Who was poisoned?"

"A servant at home!" the butler replied.

"A servant? How could it be possible? I only gave my cake to Miss George. How could a servant be poisoned if I had never given it to anyone else?"

As she said this, she turned to look at Eudora, "Miss George, could you please tell me what's going on now? How could you do this to my good intentions?"

Eudora remained silent. She studied Tiffany carefully and wondered what had gone wrong.

She had never left her room ever since Tiffany gave her the cake until it was being thrown away. However, if Tiffany was not the one who had poisoned the cake, then who could it be?

Harry, who was standing next to her, said, "Miss Leon, don't be anxious. Let's have a face-to-face discussion since you're already here. Eudora said that you were the one who had given her the cake, so we called you over. Tell me, have you seen anyone before you gave it to her?"

Tiffany shook her head, "No! I haven't seen anyone, and I gave it to her right after I made it. We are living together and she would be the future daughter-in-law of the Granger family, so I thought I should have a good relationship with her. That way, perhaps Vincent and I could have a better life in the future. But I did not expect this to happen at all!"

Tiffany then suddenly said, "If you didn't want to eat the cake that I had made for you, then you could have just returned it to me. Why did you give it to the servants? I'm not a member of the family but I am not a vicious person. How could you do this?"

Eudora pursed her lips, "I'm sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable, and I apologize for that. However, I still want to know why the cake was poisoned."

Tiffany's eyes widened in surprise. "Are you saying that I was the one who poisoned it? I just came to the Granger family, what good would that do for me? I think that you are just afraid that we will threaten your position, so you deliberately poisoned the cake to get rid of Vincent and me! Why are you such a horrible person? Our lives are already hard enough without a husband and a father. What kind of threat could we be to you?"

Eudora's heart sank, "Nonsense."

"Am I talking nonsense? Then tell me, why was the cake poisoned? At the end of the day, the cake was taken out of your room!"

Bethany was slightly disappointed as she stared at Eudora. "Did you really do this?"

"Of course not!" Eudora said through gritted teeth, "There's no way for me to clear my name anyway. In that case, why don't you just call the police then!"

She was not afraid since she was not the one who did it. If someone else had done it, they would definitely leave some evidence behind.

"Call the police?" the Old Master suddenly said, "Don't you think it's shameful enough to have such a thing happen in our family?"

"What should we do then?" Harry asked, "We can't just let this go. What if the bad guy comes out and hurts the people in the house again?"

The Old Master frowned, "Lock the four of them up. We'll talk about it once we find out about the truth."

Bethany looked at Vincent hurriedly, "Old Master, the child is innocent!"

Harry added, "Brother, Vincent is Hank's child. It's not good to lock him up when he had just returned, right?"

The Old Master frowned and said angrily, "What? Are you all refusing to listen to me now?"

At this moment, the butler came in with a document, "Old Master, the results of the paternity test have come out!"

The Old Master quickly got up, "Bring it over."

He opened the file and he laughed loudly after looking at it for a while.

"He is related to me by blood. He really is Hank's child."

Bethany ran to Vincent excitedly and hugged him. "My Hank!"
